Black Sha was completely dumbfounded!

Hei Black Sha stared blankly at Meng Lineage Meng Er beside him. "Hey, Meng Lineage head, shouldn't you at least explain what's going on here?"

Just kidding, Meng Er, you're the head of the Meng Lineage family, the largest alchemy family in Hundred Herbs City, right?

You were putting on such a grand show, plus all that countdown stuff—what am I supposed to be looking forward to?

And you call this poisoning?

What the heck is this, the three people opposite said it was a bit nourishing after they finished drinking it?

Whether Black Sha was confused or not, Yue Ling didn't know, but Yue Ling was certain that this shop really had something special!

Yue Ling said, "Don't let my current seemingly down-on-my-luck appearance fool you. I, Yue Ling, have seen it all before, you know."

As for the fine wines and delicacies, Yue Ling said that she had tasted them all, alright.

However, even if those so-called fine wines of the past had a tonic effect, it was negligible. Even many so-called medicinal wines, even if they had some health-strengthening effects, required long-term consumption to see any noticeable effect.

But this restaurant is truly worthy of being owned by the Meng Lineage; their tonic wine is incredibly potent!

The journey was filled with ambushes and relentless pursuit...

To be honest, Yue Ling was quite exhausted when she reached Tuyang.

She barely managed to walk to Hundred Herbs City.

Doesn't Yue Ling know that those who are hunting her will never stop? Doesn't Yue Ling know that the longer she stays, the more dangerous it will be?

Yue Ling was well aware of all this, but Yue Ling herself did not possess particularly strong cultivation. Even though she was much stronger than ordinary people, Yue Ling was already exhausted by the time she reached Hundred Herbs City.

But Yue Ling never expected that the medicinal wine at this restaurant would be so potent!

After drinking a cup of medicinal wine, Yue Ling felt not only all her fatigue vanish, but Yue Ling also felt a hundred times more energetic than before...

And what's most amazing is that the medicinal wine at this restaurant is colorless and odorless?

Yue Ling had drunk some medicinal wines that were supposed to strengthen the body before, but those medicinal wines not only didn't have much of an effect on strengthening the body, but also had a very strange taste.

It's the kind of drink that makes you lose your appetite just from smelling it.

But the wine at this restaurant not only has the effect of strengthening the body and restoring energy, but it also doesn't have any of the strange taste of medicinal wine!

Even Yue Ling couldn't help but marvel at how amazing this medicinal wine was!

When Yue Ling saw this wine that suddenly appeared, to be honest, her first reaction was that there was definitely something wrong with it.

On her way back, Yue Ling had been hunted down countless times, including not only being chased but also being poisoned and ambushed in various ways!

Therefore, Yue Ling would never dare to eat anything of unknown origin.

But this time, Yue Ling didn't expect that the wine was not only safe, but also so nourishing.

"Hey buddy! Another pot of this good wine! The strong kind, please!" Yue Ling waved to the waiter who had just delivered the poisoned wine.

The waiter stared blankly at Yue Ling!

"Why are you looking at me like that... Don't worry, the first pot was a gift for us, but we won't let you give away the second one for free, we'll pay for it... Go on..."

With a wave of her hand, Yue Ling quickly nodded and left.

The guy made his way to the Meng Lineage head's side... and looking at the Meng Lineage head there, not only Hei Black Sha, but even the guy himself was dumbfounded.

The man said, "This shouldn't be happening! Our master has harmed countless people, and I've delivered poisoned wine for him countless times..."

Everyone else who drank the poisoned wine died peacefully, so what on earth were these three?

Meng Er didn't know what the shopkeeper was thinking at that moment, but as the head of Meng Er Meng Lineage, the number one alchemy family in Hundred Herbs City, how could Meng Er tolerate this?

The poison I administered was actually drunk as a tonic by someone?! Isn't that just too outrageous?

"Meng Er, where did you buy this poison? Were you scammed?" Black Sha looked at Meng Er with a blank expression.

Hearing Black Sha's words, Meng Er was so angry he almost peed his pants...

Meng Er declared that he had personally concocted the poison, and he knew perfectly well whether it was toxic or not.

Black Sha expressed a different opinion regarding Meng Er's statement!

Black Sha said to Meng Er, "Although I, Meng Er, am not very knowledgeable about Black Sha, I have heard that it is not impossible for one or two mutated pills to appear in a batch of refined pills."

So are you sure that the pill you just gave us didn't mutate? Did it cause the original toxicity to change in a different direction, which is why these three people were completely unharmed after drinking it, and even felt incredibly energetic!

Meng Er was truly speechless at Black Sha's statement. Meng Er said that even if the poison mutated, the probability of it mutating into a completely non-toxic pill that could make people feel energetic was extremely low... Therefore, Meng Er seriously suspected that the problem wasn't with his poison, but with the person on the other side.

Meng Er: "That Black Sha... do you think it's possible that the Ma Liang on the other side is the real Ma Liang?"

Upon hearing Meng Er's words, Black Sha almost slapped Meng Er across the face.

Black Sha retorted, "Meng Er, do you even want to hear if you're speaking human language?"

What?! Could the other side really be Ma Liang?

I followed Yue Ling all the way from Tuyang. Ma Liang and Chu Xinghe, who were with her, were temporary hires Yue Ling made in that damn Tuyang Town!

What? Meng Er, you mean Yue Ling accidentally hired a real Ma Liang in Tuyang Town?

So, let's talk about Meng Er. Do you think it's more likely that Yue Ling will hire the real Ma Liang in Tuyang Town, or that your poison will mutate into a powerful tonic?

Upon hearing Black Sha's words, Meng Er Black Sha, indicating that he understood now. "If that's the case," he said, "Then the probability of my poison mutating into a powerful tonic is definitely higher..."

After all, you can just casually hire someone in Tuyang Town and end up hiring the real Ma Liang. It's not even a question of whether it's outrageous or not.

Furthermore, Meng Er stated that even if Yue Ling had indeed hired Ma Liang, it's common knowledge that Ma Liang isn't an alchemist... Even if it were the real Ma Liang, while he could detect poison, he absolutely couldn't turn poisoned wine into a tonic in an instant!

What? You're not telling me that Yue Ling not only hired the real Ma Liang, but also the real Chu Xinghe?

Meng Er thought to himself, "I'm not blind, okay? Look at Chu Xinghe over there, looking like a wronged little wife. Could he really be the real Chu Xinghe?"

Look, ever since Yue Ling and the others entered the restaurant, so many people ran over to take photos with the actor who played Ma Liang, but why did no one pay any attention to Chu Xinghe?

There's only one reason... that imitator of Chu Xinghe is just too damn low-end. He's obviously fake... the kind of fake that's obvious at a glance!

Someone like him wouldn't even make it past the preliminary rounds in Chu Xinghe Impersonation Competition.

So even if that Ma Liang looks impressive, one look at Chu Xinghe and you'll know they're all fakes!

After much thought, Meng Er concluded that something strange must have happened during the refining process of his poison, which led to this situation.

However, Meng Er stated that as a slightly renowned alchemist, Laozi carries more than just one or two kinds of poisons.

You dare ask for another pot of wine? Are you really not afraid of death?!

Meng Er took out a new pill, crushed it, and put it into the wine pot. After putting one in, Meng Er was not satisfied and took out another one and put it in!

Then Meng Er handed the poisoned wine, which contained two poison pills, to the waiter to deliver it!

The waiter carried the wine jug all the way to Yue Ling's table. Upon seeing the wine jug, Chu Xinghe picked it up and refilled the three of them's glasses.

Then, right before Meng Er's eyes, the three of them raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp!

Seeing the three men drink the poisoned wine again, Meng Er declared, "Let's see if you live or die this time!"

Time passed second by second... a full quarter of an hour had elapsed, and the two jugs of poisoned wine had already been consumed... let alone dying from the poison.

Now Yue Ling is openly praising him!

"This shop really has something special... The second pot of wine is even more potent than the first... We absolutely have to pack some to take with us when we leave. This is truly the best wine I've ever seen before... The more we drink, the more energetic we feel!"

On the other side...

Meng Er: "..."

Black Sha: "???"

Black Sha was completely dumbfounded... Black Sha was thinking, "Meng Er, are you trying to fool me today?"

I told you to poison them, and you're here giving them super-nutritious pills, huh?

Look at these three guys over there, they're getting more and more energetic the more they drink, their faces are all rosy!

Before drinking your poisoned wine, Yue Ling looked sickly, but after drinking it, Yue Ling looks like she could be chased by us for another three days without getting tired!

I, Black Sha, found you, Meng Er, to poison them. Did I come here to make them medicinal wine?

Although you, Meng Er, have some reputation in Hundred Herbs City, when did you ever become capable of brewing such amazing medicinal wine?

You, Meng Er, wouldn't have voted for me and are just deliberately putting on a show for me here, would you?

Faced with Black Sha's sudden appearance, Meng Er was so angry he almost jumped up...

Meng Er said that he had poisoned countless people in his life. In order to become the head of the Meng Lineage family, he even secretly poisoned his elder brother's family. You could say that his ability to make medicine to save people was really average, but his ability to poison people was definitely among the best.

But today, is it really a ghost story?

With a wave of his hand, Meng Er summoned his servants, who then brought over a jug of wine. Meng Er frantically threw all sorts of poisons he carried into the wine jug!

Meng Er himself couldn't remember how much poison he had put in. He then pointed to the wine pot and told the waiter to take it to Yue Ling's table!

Waiter: "Thank you for your patronage, and thank you for your positive feedback on our medicinal wine. This is another gift from our boss for you three!"

Ma Liang: "Brother, we can't drink this!"

The man was shocked! Had they been discovered?

Yue Ling: "We really can't drink this, buddy... there's too much medicine in this wine, it's too thick... we can't pour it out at all. How about this, you find us a spoon and scoop it out..."

Chu Xinghe: "Brother, why don't you tell your boss that if the next pot of wine really doesn't work, there's no need to dilute it; just put the medicine in it all!"

Waiter: "..."
